If You Use Google Reader

This is an administrative reminder for readers who follow these Musings via Google Reader. You are hopefully aware that Google is killing off Reader on July 1. Be sure to save your RSS subscriptions before that day.

I follow nearly 300 RSS feeds daily, so keeping things synced between my laptop and mobile devices is very important to me. I have switched over to Feedly, which offers a web-based interface as well as an iOS app. I'm glad I made the switch in advance, as it took me a few days to get used to the changes in the interfaces. If you move before July 1, Feedly will automatically import your Google Reader subscriptions and folders. (Note, I hold no interest in Feedly other than as a user.)

If you don't want to miss any Musings, or other feeds to which you subscribe, it's best to get ahead of the Google Reader shutdown and find a replacement before July 1.

As noted in the sidebar, there are feeds for both new posts and comments for Musings Over a Pint.

Self-Defense Is Not Violence

"It is high time for society to stop worrying about the criminal, and to let the criminal start worrying about society."-- Lt. Col. Jeff CooperPrinciples of Personal Defense

"Though defensive violence will always be 'a sad necessity' in the eyes of men of principle, it would be still more unfortunate if wrongdoers should dominate just men."-- St. Augustine

Targets of the Left

"Legitimate defense can be not only a right but a grave duty for one who is responsible for the lives of others. The defense of the common good requires that an unjust aggressor be rendered unable to cause harm. For this reason, those who legitimately hold authority also have the right to use arms to repel aggressors against the civil community entrusted to their responsibility."-- Catechism of the Catholic Church #2265
